Still breathing

Hmm
Night don cold but my heart colder
I talk to God but He silent lately
I smile for mirror, but the mirror know
This pain dey heavy, I carry alone

I loved you loud, you loved me low
You said forever, but you let me go
Mama say time go heal am
But time just teach me how to hide am

Every promise you make, you deny am
Now I drink silence just to survive am
I dey fight demons in my head
While the world dey tell me be strong

I no fit cry, I no fit beg
So I put the pain inside this song
I'm still breathing, but I'm broken
Heart still beating, but it's frozen

If love be prison, I was chosen
I gave you all, now I'm alone, yeah
Still breathing, still pretending
Smiling pictures, soul still bending

If this life na test, I'm failing
But I'm still here I'm still here
Late night calls with my shadow
Talking to walls, my heart shallow

Everybody leave when it get hard
Only pain stay, make itself at home
I loved you pure, you loved me convenient
When I was down, you went missing

Now you happy, I'm healing slowly
Learning how to love me lonely
I put my trust for the wrong hands
Now my heart full of questions

If love mean losing myself
Then why I still want am
I'm still breathing, but I'm broken
Heart still beating, but it's frozen

If love be prison, I was chosen
I gave you all, now I'm alone, yeah
Still breathing, still pretending
Smiling pictures, soul still bending

If this life na test, I'm failing
But I'm still here I'm still here
Maybe one day I go feel okay
Maybe one day this ache go fade

Till then I dey walk through the rain
With hope and hurt holding hands
If you see me laughing, no be joy
Na practice for a better day

I'm still breathing
That must count for something
